Hehe, you guys think that's bad???

My 1st black 88LX Hatch 4banger A4LD's rev limiter was broken. Hehehe. Redline, 5400rpms, where I sent it? Past all the numbers right into where 7k would be.

It got pretty rough about 6300, but then it smoothed out and it got quiet all the sudden? Oh well, by then it was time to shift, the tach wouldn't really go any higher.

I actually ran the car past all the numbers for a continuous 10mi interval when D and OD went out on it, running 80mph down the freeway keeping up with my buddy. I can't believe it didn't blow up.

BTW, the motor had 160k miles on it.

Find me a Honda that can take that!
